“Sixty Blades of Grass is a darkly lyrical homage to bravery and love in occupied Holland during WW2, a story grounded by its roots in the author’s family saga. In a vigorous first person narrative and in diary pages, the young painter heroine and her best friend come up hard against the evil forces of destruction around them. Through her work for the Resistance, the painter comes to have dire suspicions of her collaborator father until they too are separated. An action filled plot keeps pages turning from Amsterdam and the Hague to the death camps. A fine addition to Holocaust and World War 2 literature.” —Mary Glickman, author of By the Rivers of Babylon and other award-winning novels “An intriguing and dramatic, yet personal, story about the Dutch resistance during the Second World War. Elizabeth Millane captures the intensity and relentless danger experienced by those courageous enough to surreptitiously battle the Nazi occupation of Holland in any way that was possible. Risking their lives, it was impossible for the resisters to know who to trust—even for a young woman who is uncertain where her father’s true loyalties lie.” —Allan Levine, author of Fugitives of the Forest
